<!-- ##### SECTION Title ##### -->
Key Values
<!-- ##### SECTION Short_Description ##### -->
Functions for manipulating keyboard codes
<!-- ##### SECTION Long_Description ##### -->
<para>
Key values are the codes which are sent whenever a key is pressed or released.
They appear in the <structfield>keyval</structfield> field of the
#GdkEventKey structure, which is passed to signal handlers for the
"key-press-event" and "key-release-event" signals.
The complete list of key values can be found in the <filename>&lt;gdk/gdkkeysyms.h&gt;</filename>
header file.
</para>
<para>
Key values are regularly updated from the upstream X.org X11 implementation,
so new values are added regularly. They will be prefixed with GDK_KEY_ rather
than XF86XK_ or XK_ (for older symbols).
</para>
<para>
Key values can be converted into a string representation using
gdk_keyval_name(). The reverse function, converting a string to a key value,
is provided by gdk_keyval_from_name().
</para>
<para>
The case of key values can be determined using gdk_keyval_is_upper() and
gdk_keyval_is_lower(). Key values can be converted to upper or lower case
using gdk_keyval_to_upper() and gdk_keyval_to_lower().
</para>
<para>
When it makes sense, key values can be converted to and from
Unicode characters with gdk_keyval_to_unicode() and gdk_unicode_to_keyval().
</para>
<para id="key-group-explanation">
One #GdkKeymap object exists for each user display. gdk_keymap_get_default()
returns the #GdkKeymap for the default display; to obtain keymaps for other
displays, use gdk_keymap_get_for_display(). A keymap
is a mapping from #GdkKeymapKey to key values. You can think of a #GdkKeymapKey
as a representation of a symbol printed on a physical keyboard key. That is, it
contains three pieces of information. First, it contains the hardware keycode;
this is an identifying number for a physical key. Second, it contains the
<firstterm>level</firstterm> of the key. The level indicates which symbol on the
key will be used, in a vertical direction. So on a standard US keyboard, the key
with the number "1" on it also has the exclamation point ("!") character on
it. The level indicates whether to use the "1" or the "!" symbol. The letter
keys are considered to have a lowercase letter at level 0, and an uppercase
letter at level 1, though only the uppercase letter is printed. Third, the
#GdkKeymapKey contains a group; groups are not used on standard US keyboards,
but are used in many other countries. On a keyboard with groups, there can be 3
or 4 symbols printed on a single key. The group indicates movement in a
horizontal direction. Usually groups are used for two different languages. In
group 0, a key might have two English characters, and in group 1 it might have
two Hebrew characters. The Hebrew characters will be printed on the key next to
the English characters.
</para>
<para>
In order to use a keymap to interpret a key event, it's necessary to first
convert the keyboard state into an effective group and level. This is done via a
set of rules that varies widely according to type of keyboard and user
configuration. The function gdk_keymap_translate_keyboard_state() accepts a
keyboard state -- consisting of hardware keycode pressed, active modifiers, and
active group -- applies the appropriate rules, and returns the group/level to be
used to index the keymap, along with the modifiers which did not affect the
group and level. i.e. it returns "unconsumed modifiers." The keyboard group may
differ from the effective group used for keymap lookups because some keys don't
have multiple groups - e.g. the Enter key is always in group 0 regardless of
keyboard state.
</para>
<para>
Note that gdk_keymap_translate_keyboard_state() also returns the keyval, i.e. it
goes ahead and performs the keymap lookup in addition to telling you which
effective group/level values were used for the lookup. #GdkEventKey already
contains this keyval, however, so you don't normally need to call
gdk_keymap_translate_keyboard_state() just to get the keyval.

<!-- ##### STRUCT GdkKeymap ##### -->
<para>
A <structname>GdkKeymap</structname> defines the translation from keyboard state
(including a hardware key, a modifier mask, and active keyboard group)
to a keyval. This translation has two phases. The first phase is
to determine the effective keyboard group and level for the keyboard
state; the second phase is to look up the keycode/group/level triplet
in the keymap and see what keyval it corresponds to.
